The biggest new feature in this update is a much-requested class system. You can choose between Crew Member, Engineer, Ranger, Pilot, and Officer in the main menu. Each class has unique advantages, boosted stats or abilities, the most unique one is the Officer class. Each team now has a Captain, the Captain gets chosen from one of the Officers. The Captain can kick players out of their bridge stations and is the only one who can un-purchase upgrades in the upgrade selection menu, to prevent chaos in the selection phase with players selling the upgrades other players chose to add their own. Currently, you can only select a new class from the main menu, to prevent players from switching classes mid-round to get an advantage, expect a better system for in-game class-changing soon. Repairs now take 4 seconds instead of being instant, the Crew and Engineer class can repair much faster, taking 3 or only 1 second respectively. There are also some improvements to the server browser, server hosting, the new in-game map and lots of improvements for the AI.
